Microfluidic evaporator concentrator for increasing analyte concentration in small-volume aqueous samples
Background Point-of-care diagnostics, environmental monitoring, and biomanufacturing increasingly require the detection of low concentrations of biomolecules and other non-volatile analytes in aqueous samples, yet many portable analytical systems lack sufficient sensitivity without a preconcentration step. Existing methods such as centrifugal evaporation,...

Real-time optical microdialysis sensor for continuous metabolite monitoring
Background Continuous, real-time monitoring of small molecule metabolites in living tissue is critical for managing conditions like traumatic brain injury (TBI), where rapid shifts in metabolism can precede clinical deterioration. Traditional methods such as microdialysis allow for extracellular fluid sampling of metabolites like glucose, lactate,...

Tunable ionization platform
Background Different molecules have different ionization energies. Commercially available photo-ionization detectors (PIDs) emit light to ionize the molecules of interest. However, these PIDs require distinct lamps dependent upon the ionization energy required. In fact there are four types of lamps available, each with a different, fixed ionization...
